![]() Maybe in Canada people don’t really compliment each other. It wasn’t until I moved to New York that people mentioned my voice to me. Liza Minnelli swooned to his baritone on Arrested Development and I ask when he realised he had such a great voice and whether he does anything to take care of it. “I think the first thing I did was … I want to say Ice Age 2? Maybe? But don’t get me wrong, I’m not one of those actors who are like: ‘Actually I’ve done so many, I can’t remember which one it is.’ It’s purely bad memory,” he adds quickly. Name a blockbuster animated film of the past 20 years and Arnett was probably involved: Ratatouille, Despicable Me, the Lego films – in which he played a hilariously arrogant Batman. The awards are for his work on the superlative animated Netflix series BoJack Horseman, which ran from 2014 to 2020, because as well as being the go-to guy for malevolent doofuses, Arnett is the man to call if you’re making an animated film or TV show and you need a deep and scratchy voice that audiences adore. I am absolutely not doing that.”Īrnett (right) with Jason Bateman in Arrested Development in 2005. So he’s not planning the fourth and fifth babies? He fixes his face into an exaggerated grin with wide-open, terrified eyes. Arnett looks far better than anyone with a 20-month-old baby has any right to, but his handsome appearance always did undercut his loser persona (or maybe that should be the other way around). I’m in this for A WHILE,’” he says, rubbing his eyes. Like, this morning, just getting my two older boys out of the house and to school took a couple hours and by the time I’m home it’s 8.30 and I’m three hours into the day already and I’m like: ‘Oh my god. How has having his third baby in his 50s compared with having his first in his 30s? “Well, when you already have kids, you know how long the road is. He also has two older sons with his ex-wife, Amy Poehler. But honestly, I didn’t put them there, I just moved house …”Īs well as moving house, Arnett, 52, had a baby over lockdown, Alexander, known as Denny, with his girlfriend Alessandra Brawn. “It’s embarrassing because it’s like: ‘Hey man, we can all curate what we have in our background – and you choose to have that!’ I’ve gotten a lot of shit from friends on Zoom calls about it. I just figured out that I probably shouldn’t be sitting here,” Arnett says when I ask about the metalware behind him.
